Is the position of the chamber that important?

It is when Ady has decided to redesign the vane to accomodate the chamber based on the belief that is in fact contained within it. If it can be proven to be otherwise we would be saving him quite some time and effort.

For the reasons described above I don't believe it is necessary (at least for continuity purposes) there is however a world of difference between what must be done and what Ady wants to do.

If Ady wants to redesign the vane he should do it (it is his project, his time and his money) and I'd imagine there would be no force on Earth that could stop him so we shouldn't waste our time trying to but there is no continuity issue that makes it essential that I can see.

It's more a artistic choice on Ady's part than a story requirement.

Changing the launch pilots helmets in ANH to match the ones in the battle would have been a continuity correction and not changing them leaves ANH:R brilliant as it is, still a work that can be improved upon. If I had been around for discussion back then I would have pressed for that change above the admittedly lovely new Death Star approach.

Most (hopefully all) of the continuity issues have been brought up this time around and Ady's desire to change the vane design isn't in the same (ahem) vein.

It's more of a cherry on the icing touch than an essential correction and if he has the time and drive to make it, all power to his arm.
